Despite loving our pets like family, not everyone can tolerate the effects of having one in the house. Even a small amount of dander can trigger allergies. Trust me…my mom is allergic to both cats and most dogs AND she’s definitely allergic to my dog. However, she also still chooses to own a dog, and when it comes to appearances, removing excess pet hair from couches, rugs, and other surfaces can be a real annoyance.

Whether you have a fuzzy cat or a furry dog, an air purifier can make a noticeable difference. It can efficiently filter out not only hair and dander but also odor particles to make your home friendlier to your family and every visitor at your front door.

With the help of an air purifier, I can have not only my mom over, but also my friends who are allergic to dogs as well. Getting a good HEPA filter, an air purifier can capture particles released from pet waste and dander before they reach your nose – creating a fresher, cleaner atmosphere without the need for heavy air fresheners or artificial scents.

If an air purifier has been on your wish list, here’s something fun: the Military Pet Club is hosting a sweepstakes right now, and August’s prize is….you guessed it…a HEPA air purifier! It’s the perfect time to join if you haven’t already. Membership is free, and you’ll get access to monthly giveaways, pet care tips, and fun surprises made just for military pet parents.
